did you try to reformat? I'm kind of worried to do this because another
filesystem might lower the lifetime of the flash-stuff by exhibiting
different write patterns (and since it's soldered in, I don't want to
destroy it faster than necessary). I'm actually even wondering if Nokia
changed something in the vfat implementation or if this is standard vfat
with the superblock in the first device blocks (seems to be very bad for
flash-based memory).
Thanks & Best,
Torsten
